 * An implementation of a RIpple-DOwn Rule learner.<br/>
 * <br/>
 * It generates a default rule first and then the exceptions for the default rule with the least (weighted) error rate.  Then it generates the "best" exceptions for each exception and iterates until pure.  Thus it performs a tree-like expansion of exceptions.The exceptions are a set of rules that predict classes other than the default. IREP is used to generate the exceptions.<br/>

 *
 * There are five inner classes defined in this class. <br>
 * The first is Ridor_node, which implements one node in the Ridor tree.  It's basically
 * composed of a default class and a set of exception rules to the default class.<br>
 * The second inner class is RidorRule, which implements a single exception rule 
 * using REP.<br>
 * The last three inner classes are only used in RidorRule.  They are Antd, NumericAntd 
 * and NominalAntd, which all implement a single antecedent in the RidorRule. <br>
 * The Antd class is an abstract class, which has two subclasses, NumericAntd and 
 * NominalAntd, to implement the corresponding abstract functions.  These two subclasses
 * implement the functions related to a antecedent with a nominal attribute and a numeric 
 * attribute respectively.<p>
 * 
 <!-- options-start -->
 * Valid options are: <p/>
 * 
 * <pre> -F &lt;number of folds&gt;
 *  Set number of folds for IREP
 *  One fold is used as pruning set.
 *  (default 3)</pre>
 * 
 * <pre> -S &lt;number of shuffles&gt;
 *  Set number of shuffles to randomize
 *  the data in order to get better rule.
 *  (default 10)</pre>
 * 
 * <pre> -A
 *  Set flag of whether use the error rate 
 *  of all the data to select the default class
 *  in each step. If not set, the learner will only use the error rate in the pruning data</pre>
 * 
 * <pre> -M
 *   Set flag of whether use the majority class as
 *  the default class in each step instead of 
 *  choosing default class based on the error rate
 *  (if the flag is not set)</pre>
 * 
 * <pre> -N &lt;min. weights&gt;
